My husband and I took classes here with Paz for our wedding and had so much fun!! We did a 15 class…read moresession which was perfect for getting true choreography (we had voted for a 5 initially on the scale of "I don't want to dance. I'm just doing it for my parents" vs. "I want to look like I'm on Dancing with the Stars), a few sessions of just cleaning up the dance and also the opportunity to practice during their monthly party. Paz was so sweet and a great teacher. She explained things well and had fun ideas. The dance flowed very well and never felt too repetitive or too slow. Everyone at the wedding was so impressed by the dance. Highly recommend booking here if you are looking to do a first dance with your partner!

I bought a Groupon for a Wedding Dance Consultation and Lesson for One Couple. Our lesson was for a…read moreFriday at 7:45 pm and scheduling was super easy - all you have to do is email them, and they are super responsive. For this session, they ask you a bunch of wedding-y questions like what you imagine your wedding to be like, what the reception area will look like, if there are any moves you'd want to incorporate, and how you want to feel during your first dance. Then they show you basic ballroom dance moves for the rumba, foxtrot (?) and I think one other one. It was nice because we knew what our first song would be so they were able to play it for us to practice to. It's also nice that it's per couple so you do get all the attention and feedback on what you're doing right/wrong. We didn't end up getting the 5 lesson package because they said the prices were only good for 24 hours and we weren't sure if we wanted to commit. Also at the point, there was probably only about 1.5 months until our wedding, so we thought it would be too rushed (but that's on us for thinking about lessons so late in the game). There are some group dance lessons, which we caught a glimpse of since we got there early, which look pretty fun! Maybe something I'd consider for after the wedding, just for something to do.

She is very upbeat and gets you motivated to try harder things. Ashley works with you and determines where your best fit and works with your weaknesses and strengths.

You will get so fit and tone with Ashley's classes. I was sore the next day but it felt great.

I've taken a handful of classes here and they are all great, although the fire level classes are not for the faint at heart! Each instructor has their own unique way of transitioning flows and making each movement feel new by adding a variation of some sort. I can say after tough training sessions at Hoboken Jiu Jitsu the classes here are a great way to regain some mobility and aid in recovery. Also, keep your eyes peeled for monthly challenges and prizes; Pavana has a great way to keep it's members honest all the while increasing mat time for their individual practice.

Having run a small gym for a long time there are a lot of things about Pavana that I really…read moreappreciate. Clean- it's a small place, yes, but it's always clean, the bathroom, the floors, the mats/blocks/blankets/straps they have for people to use look/smell clean. They have toiletries for people too like hand sanitizer, lotion, feminine products etc. Theres always insence or diffusers, candles so the place doesn't smell like sweat. Easy check in, booking classes via MINDBODY app and iPad at the desk. Classes for different levels. Super beginner to way advanced. Even crazy intense classes where the only yoga element is that it's held at a yoga studio lol Janel's class is NOT for the weak! And I used to train boxing, kickboxing, weightlifting and that class has me full body sweating from start to finish. They also offer meditation classes, restorative like stretching classes plus everything you'll need for class is provided too, all included w your membership. The regular yoga classes have fun themes sometimes like glow in the dark, 90s music, candle lit flow etc which keeps it interesting. Pavana seems to also be very interested in community, some of the teachers have newsletters, they're on social media, there's monthly challenges, different Hoboken events (I actually found out about them via the first street fair!) All the classes are for mix men and women young and old but all the teachers are women. There's a lot of classes through the day/night. The teachers are always available before or after class if you have questions, they're super sweet and very approachable. Always asking for suggestions and bring something different to each class. They're not like super hippy kinda full of shit yogis like a lot of places around hoboken just trying to scam students. It's really nice that it's just full of positive people trying to do better at something. I love the essential oils some of the girls share during savasana too! Yoga constantly reminds me to be patient, to recognize small victories, listen and notice even the slightest changes can have big impacts not only in my practice but all around me. Helps with my terrible balance, busted joints, plus the strength/flexibility training keeps the weight down! Haha

That means children and adults!!!! This past year I was able to perform in a ballet for the first time in my life. It was quite an enriching experience.

But what stands out to me is how they genuinely care about developing the kids as dancers and people. This is my daughter's first season with them, but they made her feel like she's been with them for years. The classes are full of energy and everyone is so supportive of one another. There is a genuine family atmosphere at this school. I can go on and on about how there is no other school like this in the area from their professional training, concept videos, photoshoots, etc.. Plus the directors constantly go the extra mile for these kids and are very friendly. On a side note, I noticed one bad review. I wouldn't let this lone review discourage anyone from going here. There are so many more students, dance parents, and alumni who have wonderful things to say about them. It's a testament when outside schools and choreographers have glowing things to say about them as well. I would highly recommend this school for anyone who is interested in becoming a professional dancer in the commercial world or if you just want to have fun dancing and receive great training in the process.
